I seen a tip a few yrs ago on how to melt chocolate. I was a life saver because in microwave it always ceased up. Heat a pan of water to light boil remove from heat sat bowl of chocolate chips on top of water pan and stir till melted. Hasn’t failed me yet. Love your videos

[@lifeissweet9826]

That's called a double boiler. It was always used before microwaves.

[@sheilabeaulieu1107]

A tip you may find handy-I run hot water over sweetened condensed milk before I open it pour out of the can easier & a little less messy.

[@jennifercoleman6947]

Great idea

[@lindabarling7719]

Oh nice. I'm gonna try that next time. I'm usually propping it up over a bowl, waiting pacing while it drains out. I don't like using spoons to scrap it out. I watched my mom do that, and scrap some metal shavings into the bowl. Not fun trying to get all those shavings out.

[@lindablackstock4421]

I use a double boiler to melt my chocolate, that way it doesnt get burned in microwave. I use a sauce pan with water in it and a stainless steel bowl on top, i melt almond bark in it and dip in big marshmellows up half way then sit them up and sprinkle with sprinkles or any small decorations. I also do pretzels in chocolate or potatoe chips. Omg im hungry. Lol.

How refreshing to see such a sweet married couple!

[@rosemarie7816]

Omg, you just hit on my childhood trauma. My mother scraped out every drop she could from the bowl while I stood there begging her to leave me some. As a mother, I remember and ALWAYS leave my son enough in the bowl and beaters to make him happy. Also, I bring him choice things that he likes as a surprise treat. For example, he likes plain ground beef with salt. So, if I'm frying some up for chili or other meal, I'll fill a small prep bowl and walk it upstairs to him to eat while he finishes his homework before dinner. ❤ Food is love.

[@kathleenhutchings3854]

That’s so sweet. My mom used to do all those same things for me when I was little and I loved her so much for it. Trust me, your son will always remember that you thought of him that way, it’s the little things that matter so much.

[@Hossette-96]

Yes food is love and an awesome way to bond with family and loved ones. I too would purposely leave extras in bowl and on the beaters just to watch the joy on their little faces. Memories I will cherish for a lifetime 🥰

[@susanmcbride8206]

Same

[@tammywooley2635]

Yeah when we were little the left overs were the best part. Before mom could put them in the sink we grabbed them and did some pre cleaning before they were ready to be either put in the dishwasher or washed by hand.

[@tammywhynot123]

Lol My older sister would run water in the bowl so I couldn't scrape the bowl! Memories! The old B.

[@sharonmccarty4630]

I really love your cool whip candy video. I freeze my cool whip because frozen it is like icecream. Maybe flavor the thawed cool whip with flavorings or fruit that will freeze, freeze, release and drizzle them with chocolate or coffee syrup…The possibilities are endless…As long as all ingredients will freeze.

[@lindagroskopf3749]

These recipes look good, can't wait to try them. A hint to help manage the unruly parchment. I use binder clips along the edges to hold the paper in place.

Love your videos. The candy ones are so easy to make for gifts.

[@dellalovell3704]

What I liked about this video, this one in particular was the fact that while she was making the candy not everything went perfect. And what I mean by that is just regular people making candy we could always make something that did not go quite right. And this particular video showed us that. And the person who commented on never add liquid to chocolate, now I understand why the one day when I was trying to make chocolate candy for my grandchildren I put a little tiny bit of milk in it thinking that it would make it silky. But, what it did was exactly what was done in today’s video. It’s seized right up. I had to throw it away. We learned something new every day. I enjoy watching these videos because they give such good ideas to things to try with our own families. 😊

Optional - put small amount of melted chocolate on top an sprinkle with crushed almonds.

I just want to say Thank you for the E-cookbook. I've never owned an actual cookbook before. And I'm 52! I started cooking at 9yrs old for my younger brothers. We were latchkey kids & I wanted to help out so my mom & dad could rest when they came from & went to work. They had crazy shifts. My mom commuted from Denver every day & my dads schedule fluctuated between 1st & 3rd shifts. So basically I'm self taught. I've always learned by watchin & doin! I had to learn from wherever & whomever I could before KZbin was a thing! I get asked for my recipes often but I rarely use actual measurements so those are hard to share. Anyway, I'm excited to see all the recipes & make everything proper! Again, thank you so much for such a lovely gift. ❤

I really enjoy your videos. I do have a question regarding your process of melting the choco chips. Why don't you use the double boiler method? I've been cooking, baking and sewing since age 8. My dad was a chef. I'm now 73. We didn't have microwave convenience. Using the double boiler method pretty much eliminates the seizing up of the chocolate as I witnessed in one of your videos. And I believe it's much more time saving. Sometimes the "old fashioned" methods top todays modern methods.

I know with the microwave you have to do it in increments to make sure it doesn't make the chocolate to dry or burnt. I think there is powdered food coloring? The red didn't seize up the second time with the cherry flavour? Maybe you just needed to remelt the red chocolate?
